Abstract:

Crude alcoholic extract of flowers of Sphaeranthus indicus showed antibacterial activity against 18 different species of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria used. Antibacterial activity was present in alkaloidal as well as in non-alkaloid fractions. Four new alkaloids have been isolated by chromatographic methods. Broad spectrum antibacterial activity was exhibited by two isolated alkaloids.
